What Causes Grand Slab Leaks Under The Foundation?

Settling of the foundation can easily bend and damage pipes beneath the surface causing slab leaks in Grand. Poor workmanship at the time of construction can also be responsible for leaks under the foundation. Slab leaks can also occur from corrosion of the pipe due to high pH levels in the water. Old galvanized pipes will also finally give up and break down after years of service.

Can Option One Fix Leaks Under A Slab or Floor?

After locating the leak, the next step is to determine if it is feasible to do a slab leak repair, which requires removing a section of the concrete floor and digging down to the pipe and performing a copper pipe repair or polybutylene pipe repair (poly pipe repair) which is more generally referred to as a water line leak repair. After the repair is complete, we will patch the concrete.

This type of repair is not always the best solution since one failure can be a sign of more to come. In that case, a slab leak repipe or re-route would be more cost affective by capping off the failed line and a new line would be installed in the walls or ceiling. Slab leaks can be repaired in a number of ways. Replacing just the one line may be a mistake if there are indications of multiple water pipe failures or "pin holing" in the home pipes or the age of the home. If the home has deteriorating water lines, then a complete copper pipe replacement (copper repipe) would be advisable. All the water lines would be replaced with copper or cross linked polyethylene (PEX), a material which has a proven long term record of being resistant to aggressive water conditions.
